Mission Report

Your Mission Report should be a reflection paper on the climate change simulation exercise.  It should contain a summary of what happened, a discussion of the lessons learned you learned about international multi-lateral negotiation, and a discussion of the relevance of the experience for your career development.  Here are the suggested topics for your mission report:

Summary

Should indicate concisely the background, participation, main conclusions about the negotiation from the perspective of the country or institutions and recommendations for the future.

Introduction

Should describe the participation in the negotiations in terms of role and input.

Conclusions about the Negotiation

Should describe how the outcome and your participation implemented your national interest.

Recommendations

Should suggest what your government’s position should be at Copenhagen, including the problems it should prepare for.

Suggestions about Improvements in the Capstone Simulation

Should outline those things that you believe could improve the next Capstone.

This assignment is due at 4:30 PM on 15 May.  Please limit your report to five pages, double-spaced, with 12 pitch Times New Roman font and submit your report into the IR Program Office (225 Eggers Hall)

Dress Code

Because this is a UN conference, the dress code for Monday and Tuesday will be "international business attire" (jackets and ties for men) or "national dress" (e.g., Iran = no ties).

This is a fictitious simulation exercise that has been developed for educational purposes.
